“ Thiodictyon syntrophicum”  sp. nov. strain Cad16 T  is a photoautotrophic purple sulfur bacterium belonging to the family of  Chromatiaceae  in the class of  Gammaproteobacteria . The type strain Cad16 T  was isolated from the chemocline of the alpine meromictic Lake Cadagno in Switzerland. Strain Cad16 T  represents a key species within this sulfur-driven bacterial ecosystem with respect to carbon fixation. The 7.74-Mbp genome of strain Cad16 T  has been sequenced and annotated. It encodes 6237 predicted protein sequences and 59 RNA sequences. Phylogenetic comparison based on 16S rRNA revealed that  Thiodictyon elegans  strain DSM 232 T  the most closely related species. Genes involved in sulfur oxidation, central carbon metabolism and transmembrane transport were found. Noteworthy, clusters of genes encoding the photosynthetic machinery and pigment biosynthesis are found on the 0.48 Mb plasmid pTs485. We provide a detailed insight into the Cad16 T  genome and analyze it in the context of the microbial ecosystem of Lake Cadagno.
